Important Meetings

There are three important meetings the week of February 6:

1. The school board will hold a special meeting on Monday, February 6 at 7:00 p.m. to hear input on the qualities desired in the new superintendent. 
2. Precinct caucuses are Tuesday, February 7. These neighborhood gatherings of political parties provide opportunities for resolutions to be presented that can then work their way through that party’s system and become part of its platform. School issues need support in these caucuses. Click here to find your caucus. 
3. Citizens League State Budget Workshop will be held at Delano City Hall on Wednesday, February 8 at 7:00 p.m. This is an excellent opportunity to learn about the state budget, which has a direct bearing on all governmental entities, especially schools.
